My Project

My students will benefit greatly from this project for the upcoming school year. I am in need of updated novels, so that I have enough in newer condition for them to read during class. Over the past few years, some books have ripped and pages are falling out.

The goals for this project are to have enough physical books available for my students to read during class.

My 10th grade students are kind and hardworking and I am trying to install a love of reading with a variety of novels. They deserve to have enough books to use during class and take home if needed.
